Aged tangerine peel, known as 陳皮 (chan pei) in Chinese, is one of the most treasured ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine and cuisine. At Tankyu Distillery, we use this centuries-old ingredient as one of the six signature botanicals in Perfume Trees Gin, bridging the worlds of Eastern herbalism and Western spirits.
The best aged tangerine peel is dried and stored for years, sometimes decades, developing deeper, more complex flavours over time. In Perfume Trees Gin, aged tangerine peel contributes a warm, sweet citrus character that is distinctly different from the fresh citrus peel used in conventional gins. It adds depth, complexity, and a connection to Hong Kong's herbal heritage.
Aged tangerine peel is also known for its health-promoting properties in Chinese medicine, traditionally used to aid digestion and soothe the respiratory system. While we make no health claims about our gin, the inclusion of this ingredient reflects our commitment to honouring Hong Kong's cultural traditions.

陳皮是傳統中醫和烹飪中最珍貴的食材之一。在丹丘蒸留所,我們將這種有著數百年歷史的食材作為白蘭樹下琴酒的六種標誌性植物原料之一,架起東方草藥學與西方烈酒之間的橋樑。
最好的陳皮經過乾燥和儲存多年甚至數十年,隨時間發展出更深沉、更複雜的風味。在白蘭樹下琴酒中,陳皮貢獻了溫暖甜美的柑橘特質,與傳統琴酒使用的新鮮柑橘皮截然不同。它增添了深度、複雜性,以及與香港草藥遺產的連結。
陳皮在中醫中也以其養生功效而聞名,傳統上用於幫助消化和舒緩呼吸系統。我們的琴酒不作任何健康聲明,但這種食材的使用反映了我們尊重香港文化傳統的承諾。在 perfumetreesgin.com 品嚐白蘭樹下琴酒中陳皮的味道。
